My wife is from Oregon, in the Pacific North West, USA. They have a huge number of microbreweries in this area (in fact Portland has more than any other city in the world), and the beers are amazing!
I am hoping to find imported bottles in the UK for my personal consumption (not trade). Looking for a shop in London, or mail order.
Thanks for your ideas. Tim
There's not a lot over here at the moment. Beersofeurope.com do some US stuff. onlyfinebeer.co.uk do some but not sure what at the moment. All that seems to come over with any frequency are: Sierra Nevada Brooklyn (There is some Black Chocolate Stout on it's way shortly) Rogue Anchor Goose Island Sam Adams
And that's about as interesting as it get's I'm afraid!

Add to that Victory Hop Devil and Golden Monkey.
Ah yes, forgot about Victory!

Oddbins seem to be stocking VHD at the moment. They often have one or two reasonably interesting US imports but their selections seem pretty random.

Expect Sierra Nevada Celebration and Bigfoot in November.
We (I work p/t for the importer) are always on the look out for US beers to import but the economics of it are tricky. I am liaising with the US craft Brewers Assoc. about how we can improve cross-Atlantic beer trade.

That's interesting Jeff. Which stores do you import for?
